River sounds

Press play for a real mountain river rushing over rocks, recorded outdoors. Add rain or a light breeze with the sliders, or switch to rapids or a weir in the full mixer.

This page plays a real recording, not a generated sound, looped so the join is hard to hear. Running water is a steady, even sound, a lot like the noise colours.

Free for now: every sound, real recordings included.

What you're hearing

Most sounds here are generated live in your browser, so nothing long downloads before it plays. The full mixer adds more sounds, other versions of each, and real recordings.

Questions

Is this a real river?
Yes. It was recorded outdoors at a mountain river and published free of copyright. The recordist is named on the sound credits page.
Are there other rivers?
Yes. In the full mixer, open the Waves sound: “River rapids” is louder and wilder, and “River at a weir” is water pouring over a low dam.
Can I add rain?
Yes: move the rain slider up for light rain around the river.
Is it free?
Yes, for now everything is free, the real recordings included. There is nothing to sign up for, nothing to install and no ads. Later some real recordings may move to a paid option; the sounds made in your browser will stay free.
